Website looks good, however I wont be buying a membership, I wont pay for the 'privilege' of clicking ads. Also, you state in your signature you are the first Bitcoin PTC...you arent..that was Coin of Midas.

Same here. Though the basic idea is nice, having to buy a membership in order to be able to click is a turn off for real. Especially at the price. There are currently 33 Ads up (as of making this post) which get you 0.00005 BTC for a click each. The basic 10 day membership is 0.01 BTC. So you'd need 200 clicks to break even. But here's the catch: With a 10 day membership you only get to click each ad ONE TIME within the whole 10 day period because ads do not refresh. I'm not sure if you got this, but most PTC Sites earn their money by charging the advertisers only. They keep a share of the money they get for the ads and payout the rest to the people clicking the ads. They don't try to have both sides pay. Some sites do offer premium/gold/whatever memberships to adclickers in order to earn some more from referals but that's all. Your site is the first I have come across that would make you pay money first in order to earn from clicking on the ads. Also even Coin of Midas wasn't the first PTC site. As far as I know coinvisitor and bitvisitor both were there even before coin of midas and fall into the same category. |

PTC sites should only charge advertisers not members... if they charge for even basic membership the site WILL FAIL |

BitVisitor and CoinVisitor are Pay to Surf not Pay to Click Is that distinction really made? Open in same window= Paid to Surf and open in new window = Paid to click? I mean the basic principle is the same: You view a site for a set amount of time and get paid for that afterwards. |

The first announcement of BTC Clicks was before coin of midas launched. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=189104.0As for ads, I set all ads to refresh. In regards to the policy of charging members, this is to provide a constant influx of advertisements available. I've run a website using the exact same model in the past very successfully. |

Some of the ads are disallowing to be included in iframe so they are not loading, and another one has an invalid SSL certificate. I'll make a function to verify if ads are working or not. |

They were reallocated from users who haven't used them timely enough. Private message me your username and I'll add them back. |

Checked out this site but it's fishy. I would have to pay for do some work and get back about a third of my initial payment or have to pay more (for referrals or for advertising my referral link) and if I'm lucky then I'll get back my initial "investment". All of this doesn't seems to me a win-win situation... Anyway good luck with your experiment |

yesterday was 49 ads..... today only 18, and its just the 4th day of my free membership..... still no have minimum witdrawal, so, i think for tomorrow ads will be 0
an idea, you can set the membership for 10 days and ads available for 15 days, so the new users can have more ads and old users can win some money and not just receiving what they invest

I need to play around with the policies a little to make sure members at least break even. I can't give away free extra clicks so I think this means that I need to extend memberships until users break even. I just got a bout of food poisoning and I'm really tired to code anything. I promise though that everyone will at least break even, even members who got a free membership. Mainly the website's success will be dependent on the number of new users joining and users renewing their memberships. Currently, only 5 memberships were bought other than the 50 free ones. I'd recommend you try referring some new members to the website until I extend memberships. |

Don't worry I'll take care of everything. |
